My iPhone's Mail app has randomly decided it won't sync with Gmail anymore (messages I've deleted on the phone still show up in my inbox online).
Are you using IMAP or POP?

I'm not sure, actually. Where would I find that setting?
[eta: Okay, Gmail says that it's using IMAP, and that deleting messages on the iPhone should move them into the Trash online. Which used to be the case but hasn't been working for the past couple of days.]

OK, that's weird. If you were using POP, I'd have a suggestion, but with IMAP I got nothin'. The whole point of IMAP is that it's supposed to stay synched.
Oh wait -- try this (I'm assuming your iPhone works the same as my iPod Touch):
On the iPhone, go into the mail settings and select the advanced options under your account. In the top "Mailbox Behaviors" section, select Deleted Mailbox and make sure the Trash folder on the server is selected. I don't have access here at work so I can't walk through it as thoroughly as I'd like, but that's the gist of it.

It is.
I'm guessing this is a Gmail issue, since I haven't changed any settings on the phone recently.

Hey. New board.
Nobody but me lusts for the G1?
To be fair, I lust for the G1 and Pre about equally, but am already on T-Mobile and have no interest in switching, so it wins. For now.
I have no interest in the iPhone for reasons I can't even understand in my own head.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I think I remember that shrift is a G1-o-phile. And so is Darth, but I haven't seen him around these parts in years.

Our wings are not tired
I'd lust after other phones, but for me one of the single most important things is that my Phone/Organizer integrates seamlessly into my workflow. I manage contacts, appointments, and emails from at least 4 computers and my iPhone. It's the only thing out there that just plugs in and works with iCal and all the other items that work with MobileMe. I'm cranky that the iPhone doesn't have copy and paste. I'm kinda neutral on the keyboard. I wish the IM clients were better. Overall it is still the best phone/PDA I've had, but it is not without weak spots. I will say I have been enjoying the App store. I now have a DB meter, signal generator, FFT, and spectrum analyzer on my phone, which is pretty great.
